A Halloween on the Darkside – Carving Kylo Ren Pumpkin

Devin loves this time of year. Most kids do, but when your birthday is right after Halloween, and that is followed up by Thanksgiving and Christmas, it’s pretty much a win-win-win-win.

Halloween is upon us, and Devin has taken a trip to the dark side. I’m not really sure how he got seduced to the dark side of the force and this year he decided to be Kylo Ren.

When we got the pumpkin, I already knew what my task would be.

Pumkin carving has become a tradition of sorts for Devin and me. We’ve been doing it since he was a little guy, and he’s always loved the orange gooey stuff.

This year is no different. I think he had the design picked out before we even got the pumpkin. If you’ve ever wondered how to make a cool jack-o-lantern, you just need a design, and a few tools and some patience and precision.

Devin is learning the art of speaking on camera and did an excellent job explaining the process.

It will be another awesome start to the holidays. May the force be with you.
